Be happy!

When I was five years old my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.

When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I did not understand the assignment. I told them they did not understand Life.

John Lennon

The sole purpose of life is being happy. What else could there be?

So stop worrying about money, about doing wrong things, about getting sick but instead enjoy what you have and live your life to the fullest every day!

The biggest change of all

Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.

Jim Rohn

This may sound obvious but come to think of it: You will always stand where you are right now if you don’t change. Therefore ask yourself: Are you truly, and I mean eternally and forever- and ever happy? Are you genuinely satisfied with what you’ve got?

Chances are you are not. So think about what you want and what you have to do in order to get there. And now the fun part begins! Instead of making excuses why you don’t do it, which I’m sure there are plenty of, you start throwing yourself at it, you start being uncomfortable, your start expanding your comfort zone and challenge yourself on a daily basis!

So in conclusion, unless you are truly happy and satisfied without any wish for something new (If your are: Congratulations), START TO CHANGE TODAY!

And remember, there is no big difference in big or small changes, the biggest change of all is to go from stagnation to change in the first place.

Jim Rohn

Use the powerfunction of your brain!

Learn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.

Jim Rohn

That’s the magic in being a human. You can be happy and still strive for something better at the same time. You would be a fool if you did not use this power function of your brain!

What’s with that attitude?

It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.

Dalai Lama

It all comes from the inside, remember that!

Asking little

He who demands little gets it.

Ellen Glasgow

You can understand this quote in two ways.

It can be a claim to be modest on the one hand but on the other hand it warns you from aiming too low. Never do that!

Let’s do this!

Okay, this is pretty rough stuff, but it is motivating like hell, enjoy!

If things went all medieval and you had to fight a guy like me over your girl, I’d ravage your ass and take her. You okay with that?

When your girl is out with her friends, she’s checkin’ me out because I’ve worked to improve my appearance and it shows. You okay with that?

You think you’re safe out here in this world? You think it’s okay to be this unfit, lazy little monger? You know you’re not safe in your job, I’m sure. Every day you go above and beyond to make sure that the cutthroat guillotine of labor supply doesn’t mutilate you into an unrecognizable, unemployed piece of shit. Why do you think it’s different with your fitness?

How’d you get to where you are? People look at you and laugh. People use you as a benchmark to change their own habits. You okay with that?

Let’s get it poppin’, kid. No relapses. It’s kill or be killed out here: it always has been. Sure, we changed the rules a little and added our own little trifling sense of justice and morality. But nothing’s really changed.

Don’t be one of these assholes making pathetic reoccurring attempts to change their lifestyle. Don’t whine about it. You’ve got self-discipline and nothing else in this life. You’ve got one try: to fail once is to fail every time. In six months, you’re either going to be a pathetic, guilt-ridden failure, or a fucking tribute to human will. Your bitch of a mother-in-law will make comments like “I can’t believe it…” Your girl will get nervous about how much you can accomplish just by setting your mind to it and start asking you to tell her she’s good enough for you. Assholes who taunted you will have nothing… nothing… to say. You did something they either simply couldn’t even begin, or tried and failed miserably.

And then when my girl is out with her friends, she’ll be checking you out, motherfucker. Let’s do this!

Happiness

There is only one person who could ever make you happy, and that person is you.

David Burns

While other people or circumstances in general can bring happiness, it is you responsibility to be happy!

I don’t mean “feeling good” or having a good day, I speak of a deep, genuine feeling of happiness flowing through your body, embracing your soul. I know this sounds cheesy, but if you’ve been there you know what I’m taking about.

If you haven’t: Keep looking, it is worth the search. Genuine Happiness is more worth than liquid gold, genuine happiness is what life should consists of!

You are responsible!

Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.

Jim Rohn

Get up early!

There will be sleeping enough in the Grave.

Benjamin Franklin

Yep, we need sleep.

But ask yourself this: Do you need to sleep in again on 11 AM? Do you need to sleep in instead of getting out of your bed and getting stuff done?

I know it takes disciplin to get up early not only occasional but frequently, but it is damn worth it. Work on your skill to get up early, it will save you much truble in life!
